Okay, I must admit, I didn't finish the book. As a rule, if, after the first five chapters I still find the book boring, etc., I can put it down without feeling guilty. I read 8 chapters.
I still couldn't get into it. The plot-line: A teenage aspiring author discovers that the story she is writing is coming true. But instead of going on cool adventures, and doing amazing things, she creates a poorly written, non-sensical, and jerky "love affair", which by the way, is very inappropriate.

Now, I don't like writing bad stuff about books, but I reallydidn't like this book.

I'm 14, and I don't really recommend this book.

A decent YA book with realistic characters and situations. The plot was thin. Also, could have had more description.

An interesting read and plot line. It seemed to end rather quickly, but I liked the characters and story.

All his other novels are so much better.
